On the Facebook group
Printables for your Junk Journaling with TLC, we were issued a challenge to use a cover image designed by the group's owner/admin (and owner of the Etsy shop
TLC Creates Vintage). Here's a look at my finished journal.
It measures 4 inches wide by 5 inches tall. There is one 15-page signature,
which means there are 60 pages.
Here you can see both the front and back covers. And here's the printable
for the tabbed pocket on the back.
I took this opportunity to use many of my favorite background papers. Rather than print on white paper, I printed on ivory-colored paper. So, what would have been white is a nice ivory color instead.
On the back of each of the pages, I printed simple plain lines for journaling. By using the ivory paper I didn't have any stark white pages in the book. I also printed two pages on brown craft paper to add some contrast to all of the similarly toned pages.
Inside the front cover.
I created the floral image that inside the front and back covers. I started with an image from Pixabay and toned the bright colors into something that would work in the autumn/Thanksgiving-themed journal. I then overlaid an ephemera image. Here is the image if you'd like to download it.
Remember that it is 8 inches wide by 5 inches high.
If you need it a different size, you'll need to scale it accordingly.
I also used a cut-apart page from Graphics 45 for some of the
tuck spots and tags, as you can see on the left above and below.
This page features two of the printables I made for the journal -- a tabbed pocket and a
tag. You can download them below.
This is the center of the signature. And here's the printable of the tabbed pocket.

The tag is below.
Enjoy!
